Message from SCUSD Office of Safe Schools

We are reaching out to you regarding a serious concern. In many neighborhoods surrounding our schools, students congregate in nearby apartment complexes, private businesses and parks. The prevalence of violence, fights, drug use, and other incidents involves not only students, but also non-students and sometimes adults.

Our District has dispatched security personnel, and school site administrators to help address these issues. Despite our best efforts, the number of individuals involved has continued to grow and violence persists in these locations.
